The implementation of digital tools, systems, and technologies in healthcare improves education, lowers the risk of errors, and enables the provision of comprehensive, high-quality care to patients. Our study analyzed healthcare students’ comprehension and viewpoints on the use of digital technologies in their education and practice. We aim to investigate how healthcare students are educated about digital technology’s potential applications during their studies and in clinical practice. Healthcare students provided several practical illustrations of digital technology employment, including e-health records, documentation access, diagnoses, electronic medical records, and mobile health. These examples effectively demonstrate improved communication between healthcare professionals, streamlined data analysis and management, and better patient monitoring. Although digital technology brings significant benefits to healthcare education, students remain mindful of the challenges it poses. We assert that digital technology is essential for improving the quality of healthcare education and providing comprehensive, evidence-based patient care.
